Chanel has raised its boutique prices repeatedly over the past decade. As a result, a Classic Flap bought ten years ago can resell above its original purchase price — provided the buyer factors that dynamic into their offer.
Indicative ranges by model
- Classic Flap: €975 to €6,600 depending on size and condition;
- 2.55 reissue: €975 to €4,800;
- Boy: €1,075 to €4,550 depending on size;
- Chanel 19: €1,100 to €4,500;
- Coco Handle: €875 to €3,500;
- Gabrielle and Deauville: €475 to €2,200.
The criteria that weigh most
- The leather: lambskin (fragile) versus caviar (more sought after for buy-back);
- The hardware: gold, silver or ruthenium, and the state of its plating;
- The serial number and authenticity card;
- The condition of the corners, flap, chain and interior;
- The presence of the box, dust bag and invoice.
